BEAN BAG ISOTOPES:ABUNDANCE AND ATOMIC MASS LAB Prelab A new atomic theory‚ in which all atoms of the same element are identical to one another and equal in mass‚ was proposed by the scientist Dalton. Although the theory had its flaws and was simple‚ it was revolutionary. Scientists became able to study the actual structure and mass of atoms after the discovery of radioactivity. Soon‚ isotopes were discovered‚ as atoms of the same element which have been built up to have different masses. Purpose

Absorption Spectroscopy Abstract: Absorption spectroscopy validated Beer-Lambert’s Law‚ confirming Beer-Lambert’s Law was a successful method in determining the molar concentration of a sample within a composition that is unidentified. Absorption spectroscopy is used in order to determine the ε value; ε was calculated to be .0566. Introduction: The purpose of the Absorption Spectroscopy experiment is to evaluate the reliability and accuracy
